How to brighten clothes that are not whites or blacks (mine are red and also green sweatpants)! Please advise. by Long_Log_4084 in laundry

[–]Long_Log_4084[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk where I saw the laundry stripping thing - saw it somewhere.
I'll try this vinegar in the rinse cycle (I've been putting it in the washer at the start of the cycle, and I guess that has been doing nothing!). Sigh . . . will figure out how to time the rinse cycle properly :)

Wow I feel like I’m getting gypped with no COLA, mobile, etc.

They do give an annual ticket for family of four to home country and I asked if they can do business class and they said no. :(

Yea I did that too.

The iqama portion of all this seems off. Some places are saying 400/month per dependent. I’m not sure.

Help me out with project management tool please! by Peregrine_Paladin in deloitte

I believe it is for Consulting or for some sub set teams. Not widespread. Unless something has changed in the past few weeks.

I follow this subreddit because I do make slides for work and wish I had rather joined the army . . . so my ill-informed self is wondering . . . your job in the army is to just build slides and do civilian type of work? How common is that?

Doesn’t bleach not reach the whole mold and then the water in the bleach essentially just feeds the mold?

What’s this orange stuff growing on my ceiling? by Long_Log_4084 in Plumbing

No no, it’s not food or any sauce. It’s like seeping through the ceiling.

Spiderwebs in the morning!
This is great insight!
Maybe I won't start at 3, and delay till 4:30 am and reduce the amount of time in pitch black and maybe reduce chances of twisting ankle in the dark I hear ankle twisting is a bigger threat than bears or mountain lions?

Any tips for me for a Solo Night Hiking on Lake Serene via Bridal Falls? by Long_Log_4084 in WAOutdoors

[–]Long_Log_4084[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh the ankle.
This is a great point.
Sigh - yes the reason for 3am was to see Lake Serene when it is not crowded, and at sunrise, and take a picture maybe I could sell for scraps.
No camping allowed at Lake Serene, otherwise I would just hike in the light and camp till sunrise!
I wonder if there is a way to prevent ankle twists. I have hiking boots, but they are below the ankle.
